The Billionaire’s Secret Quartet novel Chapter 121

"How did Lysander know her address?"

Thalassa was a bit puzzled but didn't dwell on it, heading straight home.

Upon entering, the living room light was still on, and someone was sitting anxiously at the dining table.

Thalassa almost jumped out of her skin before realizing it was her mom. She let out a sigh of relief, patting her chest, "Mom, why are you still up? You scared the hell out of me."

Seeing her return, Evelyn's worried expression faded, only to scold her, "You, young lady, not even calling me when you get off work this late. And not picking up when I call you. Just because you earned some cash, you think you can ignore me?"

Evelyn tapped Thalassa's forehead a few times, turning her prior worry into a loud scolding.

Thalassa defended herself, "Mom, I left my phone at work. I didn't hear it ring. I was so swamped that I forgot to call you, and I'll remember next time."

When she was locked up, her phone was confiscated until she was released.

So she couldn't call Evelyn or receive calls.

She was worried that Evelyn would worry, hence her rush to get Lysander to drive her home.

Though Evelyn was harsh with her words, she had a heart of gold, always expressing her worry through scolding.

Thank god Thalassa understood her, or she'd think her mom didn't love her.

"You're just a janitor. What's with all the work? Working late into the night, are you dating someone?" Evelyn questioned her seriously.

Thalassa was terrified by Evelyn's piercing gaze, and she quickly said, "Mom, I'm not dating anyone who'd date me in this situation. If I were, I'd tell you right away. It's late, let's go to bed, I'm beat."

Thalassa yawned.
